Answer:

C. Life to driving

Explanation:

Janet S. Wong's poem "Hard on the Gas" is an example of very effective use of metaphor.

The author tells about her father's learning to drive and eventual driving. She states he learned himself to drive and that his drive was never easy.

This is a way in which she talks about his life. We can infer that he had to go through life alone and he had to learn to take care for himself (maybe his parents died early). It is also suggested that his life was never easy and that it was constant fight.

So, by explaining one thing, the author explains us his father's life in comparing these two things.

icang [17]

Hello. You did not present the title of the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered exactly. In the meantime I will help you in the best possible way.

A war is an environment of death, decay, problems, sadness and destruction. For Nat to compare her own situation to a war, she must be involved in these terrible factors. Nat's situation, therefore, must be a situation of misery and destruction, where she cannot find rest and happiness, but has the feeling that everything is falling apart around her and where she feels no security at all.

Head coverings were probably the first forms of apparel put on by early humans, probably for protection from rain and sun. Hats
alex41 [277]

Question:

Head coverings were probably the first forms of apparel put on by early humans, probably for protection from rain and sun. Hats for men have been considered proper fashion for centuries, but the popularity of hats, aside from baseball caps, declined in the second half of the 20th century. Now, in the early 21st century, the fashionable men's hat is seeing a resurgence in popularity. Led by styles such as the fedora and the panama, men are again choosing to add a "lid" to a stylish outfit when dressing up is required. Men are again finding that the hat is an accessory capable of expressing individuality and taste.

What is the best summary of this passage?

A. After a decline, hats are seeing a resurgence in popularity as part of a fashionable outfit.

B. After being popular for centuries, hats declined in popularity in the last half of the 20th Century.

C. Early humans first used hats to protect themselves from rain and sun, and hat popularity is growing.

D. Hat styles such as the fedora, the panama, and the baseball cap are popular.

Answer:

The best summary for the passage is option A) After a decline, hats are seeing a resurgence in popularity as part of a fashionable outfit.

Explanation:

The reason for that choice is because it hits on the two central points of the paragraph which are:

  1. Initially, head covering were essential due to their functionlity which is protecting the head from sun and rain. But then there was a decline in this practice in the second half of the 20th century
  2. Now the practice is becoming fashionable again

All the other options focus on one side of the story.

Cheers
